Will most of the mega-churches crumble over the next decade?

We heard about the Me Too movement catching up to Bill Hybels. Mark Driscoll’s ministry had quite an abrupt end. And now, one of the more doctrinally decent leaders, Jame MacDonald, has his potential scandals (though not of the same caliber as the above). Francis Chan has left the mega-church ministry for house churches. Meanwhile, Rick Warren seems to be without scandal, as do a number of other mega-church pastors.

Are these just fender-benders on the mega-church highway, or is the movement itself built upon leaders with issues and inevitably headed toward a crash?
